Remarks:

This recipe makes about 70 small cheese rolls.

Tapioca starch can be found in Asian grocery stores. It comes in a clear plastic bag and the standard pack has 450 grams.

Brazilians usually knead the dough by hand. It’s really hard work. I prefer to use a mixer to knead the dough.

“Pão de queijo” can be served as an appetizer or snack.

“Pão de queijo” can be frozen and baked directly from the freezer. Tip: Place the cheese rolls on a tray lined with baking paper. Put the tray in the freezer. When the cheese rolls are frozen, put them in a plastic bag and put them back in the freezer.

You can find "pão de queijo" mix (Yoki) in Brazilian supermarkets. It's very practical and convenient for those people who don't have time or don't like cooking.

"Pão de queijo" is gluten-free.

PÃO DE QUEIJO

(Cheese rolls from scratch)




Like many Brazilian foods, Pão de Queijo from scratch is tricky to prepare.

It is difficult to make the balls rise as much as the prepared mix. Also, the rolls can harden very easily if left overnight.



Then, after years making pão-de-queijo we came up with this recipe from one friend in our city of Belo Horizonte. Now we just make pão de queijo using this recipe because there’s no need to cook the manioc starch and the rolls will rise guaranteed. The secret is to use mashed potatoes in the dough.



Ingredients:

2 lb of manioc starch (polvilho). You can use either sweet or sour manioc starch. Some people complain that sour manioc starch causes heartburn, however sour manioc starch makes the rolls rise more. It is your choice.

1lb of mashed potatoes (just cooked potatoes, mashed with no salt or oil).

2 tablespoon margarine

1/2 cup vegetable oil

4 eggs

1 teaspoon salt

3 1/2 oz grated parmesan cheese

2 cups (500ml) milk



Preheat oven to 350° F

The mashed potato should be cool before using.

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients except the milk. Then add the milk slowly while you mix until you get a soft dough.



Place 1 inch balls spaced in a unbuttered cookie sheet and bake at moderate oven (350 F) for about 20 minutes or until golden brown.



Makes about 50 rolls.

Tapioca bread with cheese (Pão de Queijo)

Yield: 30 small cheese breads

2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 cups milk
4 cups tapioca flour
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese

Combine the oil and milk in a pan and bring to a boil. Put the tapioca flour in a bowl, add the boiling mixture and mix well with a wooden spoon. Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes.

Add the beaten eggs and the parmesan cheese and mix well again. You will get a gooey, sticky mass.

Put a little oil on each of your palms and make small balls, 2 inches in diameter, (make sure when forming the balls that your hands are always lightly oiled). Place on a buttered baking sheet and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 15 - 20 minutes or until the top is light brown.

Like many Brazilian foods, Pão de Queijo is tricky to prepare. It is difficult to make the balls rise. Also, the rolls can harden very easily if left overnight. You could cheat by adding 1 tablespoon yeast to the flour.
